A sonnet, a sestina, plus four poppadoms: poetry and curry at Bradford festival

entry picture

Poetry and curry – that combination must be hard to beat. Simon Armitage, Roger McGough, Moniza Alvi, Daljit Nagra, Patience Agbabi, Zaffar Kunial, Kate Fox and Ian Duhig are in the star-studded lineup organised by Ikley literature festival for Poetry in the City at Bradford’s World Curry Festival, from Friday 20 June to Sunday 22 June. There’s also a multilingual mushaira (gathering of poets). Write Out Loud’s David Andrew will be reading at that event on Sunday at 12pm. More details
